    I am sure someone Hamb member will be able to give location information if you keep the post within a couple of pages from the front. looks like a really neat ride.

    I have seen the HAMB solve questions almost before the questioner clears his screen, I have seen stolen cars get recovered before the cops even got close, All over the US and a lot of other places. I know somewhere out there these 2 cars are still around, but even with the eyes and ears of all the people on HAMB it has been nearly a year with no one seeing either one of the cars I am looking for.

    kinda like expecting Super man to rescue Lois Lane when she is falls off the top floor of the news paper building.... except this time he ain't there.
    Boo Hoo !!


    (and before anyone gets bent out of shape,, that is meant jokingly)

    when I built that car, I took a 502 and starting with powdercoating the new machined block and heads, My partner built the engine with EVERYTHING new,
    we started it and got it running before I was actually thru with everything else.
    When I finally started driving the car I was totally disappointed in the motor, should have been a tire fryin' fool, but I never could get it to spin a tire unless I Power braked it and then had to floor the gas and it would not spin more than a car length.
    Yeah, I know, why do that to a custom, It is basically the best way I can tell how bad it really was.
    I think my partner got the Cam off a tooth or 2, he swore it was right though. car ran ok, but just was nowhere near what that cubic inches should have been in that light a car

    At that time (1995) I was building as fast as I could keep up, there was always something bigger, better, and faster ahead, Nowdays, I really wish I had kept it.

    Hard to believe its been this long and no one has the car location as yet. Maybe it will show up as a barn find. Who knows?

    Sounds like it is time for you to build another one. Yea i have sold cars that I wish I never sold. Even had the guy that bought my custom extended cab 32 pu in Michigan send me a article about the Detroit Autorama saying how he built it,LOL. Yea it's ******** they do that but once you sell a car it is GONE,time to move on and start over.

    Which one was supposed to be in Fl. The hood looks familiar to me but Im not sure. I usually go to Sumpter county swap meet. That could be where I remember a hood with openings that looked close to that.

    8707 views and still no one knows where these cars are,
    My faith in the brotherhood is weakening They HAVE to be out there somewhere.
